WikimediaBot

There is a proposal by the Analytics team to require that 'bots' add 'WikimediaBot' to their user-agent even for reads. See https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/analytics/2016-January/004858.html John Vandenberg (talk) 10:32, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

Perhaps they should propose it on wikitech-l where people are likely to actually see it. Anomie (talk) 14:30, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
This is due to phab:T108599 titled "Communicate the WikimediaBot convention {hawk}". John Vandenberg (talk) 10:09, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
